If you’re wondering what’s with the title it’s from a Langston Hughes short story. Now on to the sermon.

Okay, so I know it’s been a hot minute since I’ve updated the blog but I have a good reason. I’ve been writing. Well, not only have I been writing, but I’ve also been working with animator and writers to bring to life two animated projects. One of which I’m producing.

Yes, producing. It surprises me, too, but I’ve decided to do it. So I’ll keep you posted as things move forward.

So for now lets talk about the now.

Recently I lost my notebook, which had my second working novel “Blue Religion” in it. Yep, I write long handed. So the adventures of Frank Calhoun have been stymied as I try to crawl back into the writing and find my footing.

But that doesn’t mean I’ve not been writing.

Recently I just finished writing my second pilot “Soul Survivor” and I as I write this I’m writing my third pilot “Specter P.I.” which is about a down and out private detective who inherits ghosts from his uncle, which helps him become a better detective.

But that’s not all. I’ve recently been tapped to adapt a screenplay for a publisher into a graphic novel and I’ve been asked to pen a short story for a literary magazine. Yeah, that’s an honor and I’m hoping that segues me back into writing Blue Religion.

I have a few other projects in the making, but I can’t really say what they are until they’re completed, plus I’m sure you’d rather hear about the good news instead of being tantalized with it.

So with that said, happy holidays and lets start a new sermon real soon.
